    AMENDING
AGREEMENT

     

    THIS AMENDING AGREEMENT is
made as of the 25th day of
July, 2008 by and between Thomas P. Reeves (the “Employee”), a resident of the
Province of Ontario, and OccuLogix, Inc. (the “Employer”), a corporation
incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware, and having its executive
offices at 2600 Skymark Avenue, Building 9, Suite 201, Mississauga, Ontario, L4W
5B2.

     

    WHEREAS, the Employer and the
Employee entered into a termination agreement dated as of June 30, 2008 (the
“Termination Agreement”)
pursuant to which the Employee’s employment with the Employer, as its President
and Chief Operating Officer, was terminated;

     

    AND WHEREAS, capitalized terms
used in this Amending Agreement, but not otherwise defined, shall have the
respective meanings attributed to such terms in the Termination
Agreement;

     

    AND WHEREAS, on May 20, 2008,
the Employer filed a preliminary proxy statement (the “Preliminary Proxy Statement”)
with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which is currently the
subject of review by the SEC, proposing a number of transactions for the
approval of the Employer’s stockholders, including the approval and adoption of
a certain Securities Purchase Agreement pursuant to which the Employer has
agreed to sell shares of its common stock to the investors party thereto, and
the investors party thereto have agreed to purchase shares of the Employer’s
common stock, upon the terms and conditions provided for therein (the “Private
Placement”);

     

    AND WHEREAS, as part of the
SEC review process, the Employer will revise the Preliminary Proxy Statement to
have it reflect the current terms of the transactions proposed therein,
including the Private Placement;

     

    AND WHEREAS, the Employer has
advised the Employee that, upon clearing the SEC review process, the Employer
will file and mail the final version of the Preliminary Proxy Statement (the
“Proxy Statement”) and
convene a meeting of its stockholders (the “Stockholders
Meeting”);

     

    AND WHEREAS, the Employer has
advised the Employee that it will not be able to pay the Severance Balance on or
prior to September 1, 2008, and they mutually have agreed to extend the deadline
by which the Severance Balance must be paid;

     

    NOW, THEREFORE, in
consideration of the mutual promises and covenants contained in this Amending
Agreement and the Termination Agreement, and the receipt and sufficiency of
which are hereby acknowledged by the parties hereto, the parties hereto agree as
follows:

     

    
      
         


      

      
         


        
          

        

      

      
         


      

    


    
      	
              1.

            	
              AMENDMENT

            


    

     

    1.1           Notwithstanding
the first sentence of Section 3.2 of the Termination Agreement, subject to
Section 3.4 of the Termination Agreement, on the earliest to occur of (i)
October 31, 2008, (ii) the termination of the Stockholders Meeting, provided
that the requisite approval of the Employer’s stockholders for the Private
Placement or any of the proposed transactions on which the Private Placement is
conditioned, all as described and provided for in the Proxy Statement, is not
obtained at the Stockholders Meeting, (iii) the closing of the Private Placement
and (iv) a Change of Control, the Employer shall pay the Employee, in a lump
sum, the Severance Balance.

     

    1.2           Section
4.2 of the Termination Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced
with the following Section 4.2:

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              4.2

            	
              The
      Employer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the Requisite
      Stockholder Approval, which covenant shall terminate and become null and
      void, and be of no more force or effect, upon the earlier to occur of (i)
      the date on which a meeting of the Employer’s stockholders may be convened
      to obtain the Requisite Stockholder Approval and (ii) October 31,
      2008.

            


    

     

    1.3           The
Termination Agreement remains in full force and effect, unamended, other than as
specifically amended by this Amending Agreement.

    3.5           Each
of the provisions contained in this Amending Agreement is distinct and
severable, and a declaration of invalidity or unenforceability of any provision
or part thereof by a court of competent jurisdiction shall not affect the
validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof.

     

    3.6           This
Amending Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the
laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable
